A Spontaneous Libation for your Consideration

Brooklyn Cocktail

Posted by Dan. Created by Jacques Straub.
2 oz Rye
3⁄4 oz Dry vermouth
1 Maraschino cherry (as garnish)
Instructions

Stir, strain, straight up, cocktail glass, garnish

Notes

Use high quality rye.

History

The earliest recipe I can find is the 1914 book "Drinks", by Jacques Straub, which quotes the drink as 3/4 oz each good rye and dry vermouth, then 1 dash each Maraschino and Amer Picon. This isTed Haigh's version, which is is excellent.

    Replaced dead link with Wayback Machine archive link. Added lemon twist from the article to the recipe...I realize that isn't listed in the 2012 posting of this on KC by the creator, but assume it was tweaked a little afterward?

    Such a fabulous drink- the vermouth and the bitters doing exactly what they are meant to. Nothing gratuitous.

  • Re Mint Condition, 4 days ago Finehout commented:

    This cocktail is an absolute triumph of balance — the botanical depth of the dual Chartreuse plays off the Aperol's bittersweet orange beautifully, while the lime and mint keep everything bright and alive on the palate. 5 ☆!

    Really impressive blend of botanical, bitter, bracing flavors. I certainly don't find it too sweet. Drink when you're looking for bold
